Might be best at this point to dump it and get a 2000+ model 4L80-E (with a filter) and start over considering the history.

shouldn't it be under warranty from the builder?
Or was this a side job build?

yeah its under warranty. But with shipping and x mas forget about it IMO.

I didnt drive the truck for a month, got the 60e fixed. Drove it for 3 weeks. Broke it. Didnt get this trans situated for 5 weeks, then it lasted 2 days.
